Abstract: A disclosed electrochemical device includes a positive electrode, a negative electrode, an olefin-based separator, and a lithium ion-conductive electrolyte. The negative electrode includes a negative electrode current collector, and a negative electrode material layer supported on the negative electrode current collector. The negative electrode material layer includes a negative electrode active material into which lithium ions are reversibly doped. A surface layer portion of the negative electrode material layer has a film region, and when the film region is measured by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, a peak in an O1s spectrum is observed in a binding energy range of 530 to 534 eV. The peak intensity in the O1s spectrum increases from the surface layer of the film region to the inner side.

Abstract: Provided is a transparent laminated film having excellent transparency and heat dimensional stability at high temperatures, which can be produced using a simple production process. This is to be a transparent laminated film, which is a laminated film of a constitution in which a cured layer of curable resin composition is laminated on both sides of a base film, the storage elastic modulus (E?) by dynamic viscoelasticity measurement in the longitudinal direction of the laminated film at 200° C. temperature is greater than the storage elastic modulus (E?) of the base film in the same conditions, and the total light transmittance of the laminated film is 80% or greater.

Abstract: A light-reflecting panel is proposed, provided with a constitution wherein a fine powder-containing polyester layer comprising an aliphatic polyester series resin and a fine powder filler is layered over one face or both faces of a metal plate, as a light-reflecting material, which is thin and allows for form-processing, provided with a high degree of reflection capability while at the same time preventing a decrease in reflectance due to ultraviolet irradiation.

Abstract: A thermoplastic resin-coated aluminum plate is provided which is less liable to develop ply separation or cracks in a resin coating film during drawing or ironing and on which the resin coating film is less likely to peel off the aluminum plate. A semi-non-porous anodized film is formed on at least one side of the aluminum plate, a coating layer is formed on the semi-non-porous anodized film, and a thermoplastic resin coating film is formed on the coating layer.

Abstract: A method of manufacturing a glass substrate for displays is provided, which allows efficient and inexpensive removal of at least a reducing heterogeneous layer formed on the top surface of the glass substrate, and a glass substrate for displays manufactured by the same method. A glass substrate is prepared by the float method. The reducing heterogeneous layer formed on the top surface of the glass substrate is removed by etching using an etchant which is mainly composed of hydrofluoric acid.
